You like to walk in the rain
But don't like to get wet
Scream in pain when I bet
But bet on green in roulette

You like to drive to the mountains
But you're afraid of heights
You love hearts and flowers
But hate bugs and flies

Love birds and butterflies
But hate furry caterpillars
Watch murder mysteries
To determine the killer

You're a riddle, an enigma
A puzzle, a conundrum
Where'd these neuroses
Originally come from?

Maybe we can trace 'em
Back to your roots
I wish I could erase 'em
To tell you the truth

You like to take photos
Near rivers and lakes
But hate mosquitoes
and slithery snakes

You like to go to the beach
But swim like a frog with your legs
You like to eat quiche
But you're allergic to eggs

You're a riddle, an enigma
A puzzle, a conundrum
Where'd these neuroses
Originally come from?

Maybe we can trace 'em
Back to your youth
I wish I could erase 'em
To tell you the truth

I wish I could make your fears disappear
That you'd stop replaying that same ol' tape
But let me make myself perfectly clear
I'd rather deal with your fears than plan my escape

You're a riddle, an enigma
A puzzle, a conundrum
Where'd these neuroses
Originally come from?

Maybe we can trace 'em
Back to your youth
I wish I could erase 'em
To tell you the truth

Maybe we can trace 'em
Back to your roots
I wish I could erase 'em
To tell you the truth
